UNISA Textbooks and the Text Book Revolution

Due to the recent SAPO strikes, UNISA students experienced delays in receiving their UNISA textbooks and study material. Some UNISA students have still not received their UNISA textbooks and study material up till now!

This impacted the student’s studies negatively making them miss assignment due dates, which, in some cases, will not allow them to write exams.

Students were told to download their study material from myUNISA; however myUNISA was down for approximately 3 weeks. UNISA provided another link for students to download their study material, but students complained that they already paid for their study material and printing 300+ pages at an internet cafe at R1 a page becomes pretty expensive!

If UNISA allowed students to print their material at a copy shop in their area, students would be able to start studying right away!

The Text Book Revolution would benefit UNISA in a multitude of ways:

UNISA would make student’s lives easier

It would compliment their move to digital

It would save UNISA money

Paperight has started a #textbookrevolution to persuade all Universities to move over to copy shops!
